To Minerva

    By Thomas Hood



    My temples throb, my pulses boil,
        I'm sick of Song and Ode and Ballad -
    So Thyrsis, take the midnight oil,
        And pour it on a lobster salad.

    My brain is dull, my sight is foul,
        I cannot write a verse, or read -
    Then Pallas, take away thine Owl,
        And let us have a Lark instead.

                            Thomas Hood.
